摘要:
Case Report:A patient with hypothyroidism is described who demonstrated a normal response in radioactive iodine uptake after thyrotropin (TSH) administration but who showed elevated levels of plasma TSH. Other evidence suggested that the underlying diagnosis was Hashimoto's thyroiditis. The findings indicate the lack of accuracy for the TSH stimulation test and confirm the superiority of elevated TSH levels for diagnosis of primary thyroidal failure.
